      A certain West-end Theatre , the financial condition of which is said to be not of the most flourishing , has at last hit upon a decided draw . The hit in question is entitled a Bill at Three Months , and was , when offered to the management , most eagerly accepted .

      More reductions ! Hurrah for economy ! The whole establishment at the Warley depot has been broken up , and the officers—mostly old Indian servants , who , when Old John . Company was abolished , still thought that they were going to be under the authority of men of honour—are dismissed without any compensation , at a month ' s notice . This shows a noble ance contemp will t soon of jobbery take , place and encourages at certain offices us to believe in or near that Downing a clear-Street , where Rumour says some persons may be found receiving handsome salaries just for the trouble of drawing them .

      Our friend , Louis Napoleon , now of the Tuileries , formerly of Ham , of Dieppe , and of Church street , Marylebone , has again drawn attention to his great ancestor , whose name he has so kindly usurped , and whose glory he aspires to share . Napoleon I . made him " from nothing what he is , " that is , raised him from an obscure plotter to a successful assassin , —we beg pardon , Emperor . " To render homage to the memory of great men is to recognise one of the most striking manifestations of the Divine Will . " Nothing is more wonderful in this great man than the easy assurance with which he drags in the name of the Deity into his letters and speeches . Napoleon I . the was latter sent . It Heaven is astounding , so is a th pestilence at a man , who of th , to e two him , we justice prefer , at craft and cunning is "facile prtnceps" should be so fond of parading his connexion with one of the greatest scourges of mankind that ever lived , of whom he is such an excellent relif production e through , , save in your in courage poverty and and talent in your .

      What a happy little kingdom Cumberland and Westmoreland make ! For years the Lowther family have ruled those two counties with parental sway , have saved them the trouble of returning more than one or two of their members to parliament , have appointed their magistrates , & c , & c , and now it appears that , even in this age , when mischievous doctrines subversive of such paternal government are gaining ground , that even should some Liberal Minister feel inclined in the wickedness of his heart to depose the reigning . house , he could not do it , for the two counties do not contain a single gentleman , except a Lowther , capable of filling the post of Lord Lieutenant ! What a

      fortunate incident J By the way , one little evidence of the disinterested way in which the Lord Lieutenant uses his power was not mentioned in the course of the debate , and that is that the nomination day for East Cumberland , where the Conservatives gained a seat , was postponed till the latest possible day for no other reason than to allow a gentleman , who had been Lord Lonsdale if he ' s failed electioneering for Carlisle agent . Had for many the years election , to contest been held the county at the proper time the Conservatives could never have won the seat ; so , we see , against their will , the party reaped some little advantage from the dispensation of Providence which has given the practical government of two counties to one family .
